Abstract:Pdc2 is critical for the transcriptional response to thiamine starvation in S. cerevisiae and C. glabrata. In this study, we determined how Pdc2 drives transcription of thiamine regulated (THI) promoters using genetic analyses, RNA‐sequencing, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)‐sequencing, and promoter‐YFP reporter constructs. We hypothesized that Pdc2 binds to THI promoters because the upregulation of THI genes requires Pdc2, but the Pdc2 binding site was unknown. Previously, we identified conserved sequenc… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
